    Breaking out of a foreach loop

    When using a Cartesian or multigrid, the break statement does not directly exit the foreach loop. But is does on a tree-grid, making the behaviour grid dependent.

    #include "grid/multigrid.h"
    
    int main() {
      init_grid (4); // a 4 x 4 grid;
      int j = 0;
      foreach() {
        printf ("This is printed %d time(s)\n", ++j);
    break statement not within loop or switch
        break;
      }
    }

    output

    The line is printed N times as it breaks only the row iterator loop. See here.
